Here we have brother and sister Pete and Pearl Carter. Pete is the child on the left. The children look to be about 6-9 years old. The snapshot is undated, but we would guess based on the bathing suits. was taken in the 1910s, perhaps the early-20s. They look to be in the mountains, probably enjoying a freshwater lake on their vacation. We are not sure where the snapshot was taken, but the children are presumably American. The trees in the background look like conifers, meaning a northern state, perhaps somewhere in the west. The children wear the same style bathing costumes, .fairly standard bathing suits for the early-20h century. What we are unsure about is the caps that they are wearing. Girls wore bathing caps, but not boys.
